Atlassian Bets That Context-Rich Agents Beat Context-Blind Ones
When Atlassian introduced Rovo AI in 2024, it wasn’t running solely on a foundation model. It was drawing on the Teamwork Graph, the company’s structured map of how people, teams, projects, and decisions connect across an organization, built over more than two decades of enterprise use. That context layer is what Atlassian said set Rovo […]
Twilio Takes On ‘Agent Amnesia’ So Customers Never Have to Repeat Themselves Again
How many times have you called customer service, explained your problem, got transferred, and had to start all over again? With AI agents in the mix, that experience doesn’t get better—it multiplies. Twilio calls it the “conversation gap”: the disconnect between fragmented systems that leaves AI agents without the context they need to pick up […]
Ai2’s MolmoAct 2 Is the Open Robot Model Built for the Real World
In the race to build robots that can work reliably in the physical world, proprietary models have held a clear advantage. However, that edge is narrowing. The Allen Institute for AI (Ai2) on Thursday released its next-generation MolmoAct model, which outperforms popular rival, Physical Intelligence’s (PI) π0.5, across simulations, zero-shot real-world tasks, and third-party evaluations.

AWS Cuts the Setup Tax on Agent Development With New Agentcore Tools
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is moving to eliminate one of the biggest time sinks in AI agent development. On Tuesday, the company introduced a managed agent harness within Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, a prebuilt infrastructure layer that handles orchestration, compute, tool connections, and session state, so developers can test agent logic without building backend plumbing first.

OpenAI’s Chronicle Looks a Lot Like Microsoft’s Recall. Will It Face the Same Scrutiny?
OpenAI wants to give its Codex coding agent a better memory. On Tuesday, the company rolled out an “experiment” feature called Chronicle that runs background agents to capture your screen, extract context from those images, and build persistent memories so Codex understands what you’re working on without you having to re-explain it every session. OpenAI says […]
This Adobe Sneak Uses AI to Rethink the Personalized Web
Cookies have long been the default tool brands reach for when personalizing the web. For over 30 years, small text files stored in browsers have given companies a window into how users move across the web—and a way to tailor ads and content accordingly. But privacy regulations such as GDPR and CCPA, restrictions in browsers […]
Adobe Must Defend Its Creative Advantage as AI Transforms Design Tools
Adobe kicks off its annual Summit in Las Vegas this week with more to prove than usual. The company that once defined the creative software market is now navigating an AI shift that threatens to make its tools less essential—and its premium pricing harder to justify. Not only that, but it’s navigating these waters without […]
Microsoft Has a Faster, Cheaper Version of Its Best Image Model
Microsoft isn’t slowing down in its push to develop its own lineup of homegrown AI models. On Tuesday, the company announced a variation of its text-to-image model called MAI-Image-2-Efficient. While both provide photorealistic and expressive images with reliable in-image text, the new model is designed to be 22 percent faster and four times more efficient. […]
Why Microsoft Is Betting on OpenClaw
IN THIS ISSUE: Microsoft is making its boldest agentic bet yet, building a new team to bring the OpenClaw framework into Microsoft 365 Copilot — a move that could reshape how hundreds of millions of office workers interact with AI. But as enterprises race to deploy AI agents, a quieter crisis is building in the […]
AWS Unveils Agent Registry to Bring Order to Enterprise AI Sprawl
Every major enterprise software vendor—Amazon Web Services, Microsoft, Salesforce, ServiceNow, SAP—is racing to plant a flag in what they’ve variously dubbed the “frontier firm” or the “agentic enterprise.” The pitch is the same regardless of the branding: the future of work runs on digital labor. But as agent deployments multiply, so does the risk. Knowing […]
